Villa Bahia Banderas is a luxury five bedroom, five and two 1/2 bath Mexican colonial-style home located high in the hills of the Sierra Madre mountain chain in the exclusive Conchas Chinas neighborhood, a five minute drive away from the Romantic Zone in the Old Town of Puerto Vallarta. Built on four levels around a central courtyard, the house has approximately 10,000 square feet of living area with spectacular views overlooking the Bay of Banderas. The infinity pool, dramatic winding staircase, hacienda-style iron chandeliers, multiple fountains and weeping walls, brick bovedas, high-beamed ceilings, fully-equipped exercise gym, large media/entertainment room and full-time staff will satisfy the expectations of the most discriminating of travelers.

From any one of several terraces or balconies, you will find awe inspiring panoramic views of the Bay of Banderas framed by colonial period Mexican arches, antique furniture and art. All bedrooms are air conditioned with ceiling fans. The dining room comfortably seats up to twelve people and the house contains a total of twelve rooms that provide bountiful areas to socialize in large groups as well as smaller spaces for more intimate gatherings. A restful stay is assured by a complete full-time staff including cook, housemaid and butler. The large open layout with multiple terraces easily accommodates wedding parties and business events in an elegant hacienda setting reminiscent of the colonial period juxtaposed against stunning views of the Bay of Banderas which combine for unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime events.

7 night minimum Mid-December Through January 3

The dramatic entrance to the house opens onto a view of the central courtyard with cascading fountain on the floor below and a view across the living room out to the sea. The dining room provides a serene environment for memorable dinners with the calm sound of the trickling water of the weeping wall in side terrace complementing the impressive view of the ocean beyond the terrace in front. The terrace provides a perfect environment to take in the views of the Bay during breakfast to the peaceful sound of the cantera wall fountain. The terrace sitting area provides a perfect after-dinner retreat to relax as colonial-period saints look over you and your guests from their niches high on the wall. A small informal sala off of the main living room provides an intimate retreat for more private conversations or some personal quiet time.

Upstairs, the master suite surrounds one in Colonial period art with a private sun-bathing terrace, Jacuzzi bath with stunning views of the Bay, and a private retreat room off of the bedroom with flat-screen satellite US television programming. All rooms in the master suite have independent music controls from the Bose Lifestyle system in the Retreat room.

In the floor below the living area, a Media/Entertainment room off of the central courtyard fountain and weeping wall accommodates a large crowd for game playing or television/movie viewing with US programming satellite television from the Bose lifestyle DVD/music system. Three bedrooms are located off of the Media Room, two with king-size beds and one with two Queen-size beds. One King-size bedroom has a private bath, and the two remaining bedrooms share a common bath.

The floor below contains another King-size suite with private bath, the exercise gym, and the infinity pool area with sunbathing terrace and bar area suitable for large gatherings and events.

Puerto Vallarta is a Mexican paradise that lies along Banderas Bay, the second largest bay in the Western Hemisphere. Located on the same latitude as Hawaii, it is located 219 miles from Guadalajara, the state capital of Jalisco, and it is nestled in the foothills of the Sierra Madre mountain range. The downtown area has preserved a taste of old Mexico with its cobblestone streets, cathedrals, and quaint white-washed houses with red terra cotta tiled roofs and the surrounding region has many forests, rivers and waterfalls, and an average temperature of 80°F.

Puerto Vallarta is celebrated for its renowned restaurants and has a wide array of shops, art galleries and vibrant night life. Only ten minutes south of the house is Playa Mismaloya, which gained fame for Puerto Vallarta as the location set for the filming of "The Night of the Iguana". The impressive rock formations of Los Arcos which emerge from the bay's crystalline waters, are great for diving and observing underwater mountains.
